Strats and teles are two of the most classic guitars. But the question is which is better.

I'm going Tele, only because I'm currently wanting one (again).

I think a strat is more versatile but out of my Strat and Tele guitars I always go back to the Tele.

This is gonna be interesting, and I imagine will split people pretty much 50/50. I chose the strat, because it's more versatile, and I'm not a big fan of really bright twangy tones, such as that of the tele. That being said, I would take my tele over my strat anyday, at least until I buy a decent neck for the strat.

I think the major question is; when did question marks become optional?
And strat, all the way. F*ck you, Ron.

I gotta go with Strats, even though the only electric that I own at the moment is a Tele. That will be changing sometime soon though.

It depends on my mood! I love both, but currently only own a Tele- wanting a Strat though!

tele. strats only feel normal with a brass plate bridge pu and an all-maple neck.
At that point, i say, why am i pretending i want a strat? strats are ugly-shaped imo.

I don't know how that is a real question...
![]() You need three pickups, a belly cut, an elbow cut, a bigger headstock, a five-way switch and two tone controls to try to do what you can do better with a Tele? That's cheating; sad, sad cheating.

Personally, I call it a draw. Strats are much more versatile than Tele's in their modern form, but the Telecaster over the years has had much cooler variations and, to me, wins the cool factor in general.

Strats are more versatile, and I own one, too, but I honestly prefer Teles, for some reason. Might just be that I'm lusting really bad for one right now, but that's the current opinion.

![]() I'm going with Teles, because I love mine. I have a Strat too and it's pretty bitchin', but I'm pretty sure I could hold my Tele's neck like an axe-handle and use it to chop my Strat in half--then play the Tele and find that it'd still be perfectly in tune. IMO, the Telecaster wins on every count: tone, looks, feel, durability, and beat-up-other-guitarsitude.
